i took a laxative yesterday so all day today, but i didn't get any sense of relief.

i'm one month post op and for the last few days i've had really bad gas pains in my abdomen area. Did anybody have this issue? It hurts when i walk. Does anybody have any suggestions to what might help? I've tried gas x and it doesn't help.

I'm almost 5 weeks out post-op and for the last 3 days I've been having really bad pain in my left abdomen area. I'm pretty sure it's gas pain, but it is horrible. I tried gas x and pepto and I don't feel any relief. Did anybody have this problem and can help me out? Thanks

Yay!!

Had a great trip. I have absolutely no complaints about Dr. Almanza and his staff. I am extremely happy and can't wait until I reach my goal weight.

Your going to have an amazing trip. Don't worry about anything, think of it as a little vacation. I just got back today and I feel amazing, like a completely new person. It starts out a little rough, but it gets better everyday. Have a great time =) If you go shopping make sure to haggle a lot!!

Can't wait to get home and weigh myself yay!!!

Me and my mom are leaving the recovery house tomorrow around 5pm back to Florida. We feel great and ready to get home. We are glad we chose Dr. Almanza for our gastric sleeves.I will keep you posted over the next few weeks!! =)

Thank you everyone and yes I will be using Mederma

Does anybody have pictures after a few months to see the incision scarring?

Getting sleeved on Oct. 6th by Dr. Almanza. I was just wondering how many incisions there usually is and if they leave scarring? Thank you

I laughed so hard that my stomach now hurts lol... My surgery date is 10/7 with my mother... So anybody close to that date let me know... Everybody that is getting surgery with Dr. Almanza please message me after surgery whenever you can... I am very nervous and I am thinking about switching from Dr. Almanza to Dr. Pompa. Thank you and good luck
